[00:09.50]My grandfather's clock; Was too large for the shelf
[00:13.97]So it stood ninety years on the floor
[00:18.39]It was taller by half than the old man himself
[00:22.91]Though it weighed not a penny-weight more;
[00:27.33]It was bought on the morn; Of the day that he was born
[00:31.89]And was always his treasure and pride
[00:36.35]But it stopped short never to go again
[00:40.90]When the old man died.
[00:45.48]Ninety years without slumbering
[00:47.95](Dah dah dah dah, dah dah dah!) (or Trad. Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock)
[00:50.02]His life seconds numbering
[00:52.27](Dah dah dah dah, dah dah dah!) (or Trad. Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock)
[00:54.54]It stopped short never to go again
[00:58.93]When the old man died.
[01:03.64](And) my grandfather said that of those he could hire
[01:08.12]Not a servant so faitful he found
[01:12.42]For it wasted no time and had but one desire
[01:16.93]At the close of each week to be wound
[01:21.38]And it kept in its' place; not a frown upon its' face
[01:25.88]And its' hands never hung by its side
[01:30.56]But it stopped short never to go again
[01:34.83]When the old man died.
[01:41.96]It rang an alarm in the dead of the night
[01:46.37]An alarm that for years had been dumb
[01:50.69]And we knew that his spirit was pluming for flight
[01:55.24]That his hour for departure had come.
[01:59.57]Still the clock kept the time; with its' soft and muffled chimes
[02:04.18]As we proudly stood by his side
[02:08.62]But it stopped short never to go again
[02:13.06]When the old man died.
[02:17.75]Ninety years without slumbering
[02:19.99](Dah dah dah dah, dah dah dah!) (or Trad. Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock)
[02:22.28]His life seconds numbering
[02:24.70](Dah dah dah dah, dah dah dah!) (or Trad. Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock)
[02:26.86]It stopped short never to go again
[02:30.80]When the old man died.
[02:35.09]Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock......
